[edit] About input system

Amharic wikipedia has a phonetic input system for this script (if I am not mistaken). Why dont we share it?--Eukesh 17:13, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

That's a great idea, all it would take is someone with admin status here to alter the relevant Mediawiki namespace files, similar to what we have done at Amharic wikipedia. Then everyone could type Geez characters here into the box here also. I think Blake should be an admin because he edits in Tigrinya, and he could translate the entire interface if he were an admin. Regards, ፈቃደ
Are you sysopping me? You will nominate me in Wikipedia:Requests for adminship. I write tigrinya. I could translate the entire interface text if I was a sysop. --ብላይክ 11:55, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
The tigrinya wikipedia is growing to about 100+ pages. -ብላይክ 03:28, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Betawiki: better support for your language in MediaWiki

Dear community. I am writing to you to promote a special wiki called Betawiki. This wiki facilitates the localisation (l10n) of the MediaWiki interface. You may have changed many messages here to use your language in the interface, but if you would log in to for example the Japanese language Wiktionary, you would not be able to use the interface as well translated as here. In fact, of 1,736 messages in the core of MediaWiki, 5.99% of the messages have been translated. Betawiki also supports the translation of messages for 126 extensions, with 2,174 messages. Many of them are used in WMF projects and they are vital for understanding the wiki. Currently 0.00% of the WMF extension messages have been translated. Translators for over 90 languages contribute their work to MediaWiki this way every month.

If you wish to contribute to better support of your language in MediaWiki, as well as for many MediaWiki extensions, please visit Betawiki, create an account and request translator privileges. You can see the current status of localisation of your language on MediaWiki.org and do not forget to get in touch with others that may already be working on your language on Betawiki.

If you have any further questions, please let me know on my talk page on Betawiki. We will try and assist you as much as possible, for example by importing all messages from a local wiki for you to start with, if you so desire.

You can also find us on the Freenode IRC network in the channel #mediawiki-i18n where we will be happy to help you get started.

Thank you very much for your attention and I do hope to see some of you on Betawiki soon! Thanks, GerardM@Betawiki

[edit] The village pump

Could someome be so kind and move my contribution to your "village pump" and also, could someone please add a link to your village pump on meta ? Thanks, GerardM 10:35, 22 ለካቲት 2008 (UTC)

I don't think this wiki has a village pump. (If it did, it would presumably be listed here.) Hut 8.5 19:13, 9 ነሓሰ 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Translatewiki.net update

  • Translatewiki.net formerly known as Betawiki is where the Internationalisation and Localisation of MediaWiki is concentrated. Over 300 languages are supported, issues with MediaWiki programs are dealt with. We need all the help we can get to ensure that we can maintain this service in the face of an increasing workload.
